Upcoming Changes to Enhancement Shamans on PTR

Blizzard has announced some changes coming to the PTR for Enhancement Shamans.\r\r\rIn an upcoming Public Test Realm (PTR) build, several changes are coming for Enhancement Shamanss.\r\rWe're adjusting the following talents:\rPugno di Roccia damage bonus increased to 35%.\rScudo di Fulmini will no longer generate any bonus Maelstrom when the Scudo di Fulmini overcharges.\rValanga changed to a 40% proc chance.\rVenti Vigorosi reduced from 100% per stack to 80% per stack.\rMaestria nei Totem: the Totem della Tempesta benefit increased from 5% to 10%.\rTempesta di Grandine's damage increased by 50%.\rSovraccarico now causes a 9 second cooldown to Dardo Fulminante, down from 12 seconds.\rFuria dell'Aria damage increased by 40%.\rTempesta Infuriante damage increased by 40%.\r\rScudo di Fulmini and Venti Vigorosi are both popular talents right now, and we don't want to reduce Potenziamento's overall damage with changes to those two talents, so additionally:\rThe damage done by all Enhancement abilities increased by 5%.\r\rThe changes above should help make the different choices on many talent rows much more competitive with each other.\r\rIn addition to these changes above, we're adjusting how many tooltips are generated. This may cause some websites to show that the damage or healing of almost every single Potenziamento ability has changed. Do not panic; we are not lowering all of your damage and healing! This will be a behind-the-scenes data adjustment only.\r\rThank you for testing with us on the PTR!

This is what is classed as a rework these days. Blizzard has gotten so lazy and misguided in their own belief that its hard to comprehend for people that actually play the spec. This doesn't change the fundemental feel of the spec which has been the issue of BFA.

Yay the shamans can finally quit complaining so much.\r\rNo. Enhancement Shamans, who were already high tier dps, can boast even more. Meanwhile, Elemental Shamans future still looks grim.

Yay the shamans can finally quit complaining so much.\r\rI don't play shaman, but this is clearly not going to change how the spec feels, which is the main concern that I see shamans having. Buffing dps alone will not fix anything.

Buffing dps alone will not fix anything.\r\r\rYup. The buffs will hopefully make talent diversity a bit better which is also a major problem for Enhance currently, but it is going to play basically the exact same with slightly better numbers now. :\/

That's not a rework, it's just damage talents balancing... No mechanics changes, not even one utility change.

are arc mages throwing a fit about the feel of the spec? thats changed a TON since i played it... sometimes specs change... for better or for worse.

It's not a rework though, it's just tuning : \/

Honestly this just sucks. These are bad changes. Is this what they consider a rework? Is this what they consider defining our niche? All theyre doing is making good talents worse and garbage talents slightly better.

Look at Druids, look at Shadow Priests, look at Warriors. Shadow was promised a "rework" and all they got are number tuning changes. Warrior changes are meh and Druid got the same as the SPriest, number tuning. So sad.

Yay the shamans can finally quit complaining so much.\r\rNo matter what class they play as, people will always complain.

Yay the shamans can finally quit complaining so much.\r\rNo matter what class they play as, people will always complain.\r\rOf course they will, that's the result of a game that has different classes\/different specs. Unfortunately we will never live in a time where devs can tune classes to be balanced well.
